About

Namaste! I'm Esther, mama, writer, photographer, conservationist. This website is a collection of my favorite recipes and an exploration of green living, holistic healing.

I'm into ancestral cuisine using whole food, single ingredients without wheat, sugar, or preservatives. My goal when cooking is to dirty as little dishes as possible.
